“Downloading your wedding brain”: what is wedding day management and why do you need it?
We’ve already waxed poetic about how event planners can save you money, save your ass, and be your wedding savoir, right? But maybe you’re still thinking it’s just too expensive or you have someone on your guest list who can wing it. To play devil’s advocate, we talked to one of our own Offbeat Brides and beloved vendors, LA-based Jessica Carrillo of Art & Soul Events, to see why hiring a wedding planner (or in this case, a “wedding day manager!”) may be the decision you’ll totally be happy you made. Let’s talk about what the heck wedding day management even is and why you might totally need it.

Michelle & Ricardo’s multicultural movie geek theater wedding
A little Star Wars in the cake toppers, a little SuperWhoLock in the DIYed bouquet, and a whole lot of pie, paper flowers, and photo booth shenanigans. This wedding even had a taco bar. But our favorite parts were the movie posters redone with the bride and groom. So epic.
